The staircase gets steeper.
Founder rounds lock the lowest monthly fee and the 80% commission split. Each round closes. Later cohorts pay more and earn less. Once you're in, your rate stays at the round you joined as long as you're an active partner and in good standing.

How tiers work: Founder rounds open one at a time. When a round fills its slots, the next round opens at the next price step. Every partner’s monthly fee and split stay at the rate of the round they joined — as long as they remain an active partner and in good standing.
This is not a referral program. It's a sales infrastructure.
Leads, product access, training, and project support — handed to you so you can build a real solar sales business without building from scratch.
Qualified leads delivered to your pipeline. Raynora generates and routes homeowner leads to founding partners monthly. Your platform fee funds the lead engine — you don't build it from zero.
AURA℠ pitch and certification. The 30% cashback check most solar companies cannot offer in 2026. We train you to deliver it in one conversation. The product opens kitchen-table doors that stay closed for the rest of the industry.
Full project management handled. From site survey through permits, installation by Raynora crews, and grid activation — everything downstream of the close runs through our project team. You close the deal and move to the next one.
Virtual sales model across 30 states. Close anywhere in our footprint from your laptop or phone. No windshield time. No territory restrictions. The sale happens on Zoom — the install happens on the customer's roof.
Proposal tools and baseline pricing. Generate signed-ready proposals using Raynora's state baseline schedule. No pricing guesswork. The math protects your margin and the customer's trust simultaneously.
Founding rate at your join price. Your monthly platform fee and 80% commission split don't change as long as you're an active partner and in good standing. Later cohorts will pay more and earn less. Early movers always hold the best terms in this program.
✶
This is what makes the offer real. A solar sales business that produces $200K+ a year only works if the leads, the product, the install, and the project management are actually handled. We handle them. You close.
Most states don't require it.
A solar sales license is not required in most of our active states. Three states require it — and they're three of the highest-value markets in the network.
California, Connecticut, and Maryland require an active solar sales license to operate. These are also three of the strongest closing markets we have — high system sizes, high baseline pricing, and customers who treat the AURA℠ cashback structure as a closing event rather than a curiosity.
If you hold an active license in any of these three states, lead with it on your partner call. Licensed partners receive priority lead allocation in their state. If you're not licensed but interested in CA, CT, or MD as a market, mention it during the call — we'll point you toward the fastest path to licensure. The investment pays for itself on a single deal.

What you're really asking.
How exactly does the commission work?
Every deal is sold above a state baseline price. The spread between your sale price and the baseline — after a 20% infrastructure platform fee — becomes your commission pool. As a founding partner you keep 80% of that pool. On a typical 10kW deal with a $0.80/W spread: 10,000 W × $0.80 = $8,000 above baseline, minus 20% platform fee leaves $6,400, × 80% to partner = $5,120 per closed install.
Do I need solar experience?
B2C sales experience is required. Solar experience is preferred but not mandatory. We train every founding partner on the AURA℠ pitch during onboarding. The product sells itself once you understand it — your job is the relationship and the close. If you've sold something hard to consumers before, you can sell this.
What happens after I close a deal?
You submit the signed contract through Raynora's proposal system. Everything after that is handled. Site survey, permits, financing coordination, installation by Raynora crews, grid activation — all run by our project management team. You collect your commission as the project hits each milestone and move to the next deal.
When do I get paid?
Commissions release progressively as the deal moves through milestones — meaning money starts flowing before the project is fully complete. AURA Standard: initial draw at M1, 40% at installation, 40% at inspection, balance at final funding. AURA+: larger M1 draw of $2,500–$3,000 (higher in CA), balance at installation. Loan, lease, or cash deals each have their own milestone schedule, all covered in onboarding. Raynora disburses commission via ACH to your LLC within 14 days of cleared funds at each milestone.
Does my founding rate stay the same after I join?
Yes. Your monthly platform fee and 80% commission split stay at your founding rate as long as you're an active partner and in good standing. As the program matures and later cohorts pay higher fees and receive lower splits, your founding economics become increasingly valuable. Early movers always hold the best terms.
What do I need to get started?
An active LLC (or commitment to form one within 14 days of signing), B2C sales experience, and the ability to sell virtually using video, phone, and digital proposal tools.
